‘Moments’ concludes on a high note

A photography exhibition, organised by Salam International Investment Ltd (SIIL) at The Gate Mall, concluded after drawing a steady stream of visitors from December 11 to January 7. Titled ‘Moments in Memory of Sheikh Khalifa Bin Hamad Al Thani,’ the unique archival photography display featured rare images that chronicled Qatar’s late Grandfather Emir in his official capacity as head of state. The exhibition also showcased a selection of personal interactions of Sheikh Khalifa, captured by SIIL’s founder, AbdulSalam Mohamed Abu Issa, himself. SIIL chairman and CEO Issa AbdulSalam Abu Issa acknowledged that owners of historically significant material, such as the archives from which the exhibition’s images were drawn, have a key role to play in the narrative of a nation.
